Terpsichore is a 1956 by Marie-Louise Carven, held at Palais Galliera - Musée de la Mode de la Ville de Paris.
The painting depicts a woman in a dress, with her face obscured. She is wearing a sleeveless dress with a full skirt and white gloves. The dress appears to be made of a lightweight material, possibly silk or chiffon. The woman's body is turned slightly to the right, with her left leg extended behind her. Her right arm is bent at the elbow, with her hand resting on her hip. Her left arm is extended downward, with her hand holding a small object that is not clearly visible. The background of the painting is a light beige color, which provides a subtle contrast to the woman's dark dress. The overall effect is one of elegance and sophistication.
